Sometimes it's the little things in life. I have been wanting a designated coffee bar since we made the sunroom a Dinning room and I finally found a rolling cart that is perfect for it and today I was able to set it all up.
I will say, if you are not shopping Amazon for furniture you are missing out, most furniture stores around here were charging 350-700 for similar carts and same quality, this one was just a little over 100 and is on wheels with a fold up leaf for seating or additional counter space, perfect for culling season to become an extra surface!
Getting this house finally decorated one room at a time!

People laugh when I tell them I don't give or sell guineas to people that live very close by, here is one of 8 reasons why. This is currently one of eight groups roaming our neighborhood 24 keets in the group with 6 adults. In the morning another group with 11 keets was walking on the road.
While I do appreciate them for helping keep the tick population down, come winter time they all hang out on our property hoping to snag the food from the ducks and geese. These wild guineas managed to repopulate from a small flock of six and now their numbers are over 250 as far as I can tell and every year the groups split and multiply....

You want guineas, come and catch them and keep them!

End of rant!

Took a little walk to the gate and found Snow-white with her 10 brand new ducklings, I knew she disappeared and was wondering if she was gonna come back, well girly, welcome back with your 10 sweet babies!
And the neighbors goats are doing an amazing job cleaning up the front pasture. I am so excited for this fall to set up the property in a way where the goats can eat and graze but my plants are safe!

Well! Farmers rise before the sun and Keith from The Farm2Table Show is no exception. Always love chatting with these two fun Brothers, and I am so honored I got invited back to their Show! This time it's super early in the morning , like rise with the chickens kind of early at 6:45 am CST. I get to share some Goose wisdom, a secret I have been keeping and answering some rapid fire questions (I don't think they know what they just sign up for with that part lol, my brain spits out some random answers sometimes and I can't control what come out of my mouth 😂) anyhow, tune on in or watch the replay, we will be sharing the live link soon and the recording afterwards! Check out their Show, it's their mission to bring helpful information to the farming communities and like minded people that want to learn more about their food sources and country living.

Raising our own chickens hasn't been the most rewarding thing to do (people that raise chickens know you either love them or hate them) but the flavor is so superior to any store bought chicken and this should at least have a sticker on it on where it came from and who produced it.
